You don't have a valid datetime value. Put a breakpoint there and see what the data is and you should have this fixed quickly.

I assume you just forgot the quotation marks around MM/dd/yyyy here.
Your input date string does not match the formats "MM/dd/yyy" or "MM-dd-yyyy".
The format "MM-dd-yyyy" is uncommon (English date format with '-' separator).

To find out what applies, you should print out model.ExpiryDate to see which format is used.
